> We never wanted to take credit for something as amazing as that,” Capaldi said on Sunday as the Nubian Jak Community Trust, an organization in England known for recognizing Black history, unveiled the very first of its famous Blue Plaques in the United States at the church.

I think there might have been a lost in "translation" moment here. Blue plaques are famous/well-known in the UK. However, they were not created by Nubian Jak Community Trust. They were first created about 150 years ago. The official scheme is now administered by the charity English Heritage. Today, plenty of other organizations can and do place their own blue plaques.

Actually looks pretty unique and interesting. At least it’s not those giant bronze arms.

The date and time of the most pivotal speech that Dr King himself said convinced him of nonviolence had gone unknown for decades, and the accepted narrative as to where the speech happened, had been wrong. This is corrective history on a grand scale.

Caution -- satirical rant -- don't bother unless you know what I'm referring to: Another MLK memorial is welcome, but it's never complete without one of his best, most iconic quotes (that fit within the requisite space using our limited selection of templated fonts). Like the famous "I have a dream that we'll be judged by our character!" Or "It really doesn't matter, because I've seen the mountaintop!" Or "Give us the ballot and we will fill our legislative halls with ... benches!" Remember, above all MLK was known for his oratory, so what matters on the memorial is not so much the specific words, but just that there are words.

I was surprised to see a bust of MLk carved on Westminister Abbey and a statue of Abraham Lincoln in London.
